Ahyokah Herit

I bring a lively energy to every room I work in, whether welcoming guests at Bel Air Bay Club, hosting at Dolohatchee or managing the floor at Wasp in a Wig speakeasy. I thrive in fast-paced spaces where every detail matters, from making sure guests feel at home to keeping the team flowing smoothly. I love turning an ordinary day into something people remember.
